Reply #45: I DO blame Bush and Cheney, however.

[BanTheGOP]

Of COURSE this is not President Obama's fault. His entire administration has been one of trying to correct the death, horror and destruction wreaked out by the republicanist aggenda for the past 8 years, and since Reagan of the 80's. His efforts have heretofore been superhuman, and many of us expect him to actually put on a cape, fly to the bottom of the well, and cap it.

But he HAS done something no other president has the guts to do...and that is to ban drilling and exploration of ANY gas or oil offshore! This oil spill should be placed SQUARELY on the shoulders of the ONLY organization responsible for its destruction... the republican party, including every republican administration prior to now, and every republican congressman, senator, and republican-appointed judge on the federal circuit or Supreme Court.

My initial synopsis is that Dick Cheney is the major culprit here. Source:
